The 18th hole at Pebble Beach Golf Course is a dogleg to the left of length 496.0 m. The fairway off the tee is taken to be the x direction. A golfer hits his tee shot a distance of 300.0 m initially in the x-direction, and hits his second shot 189.0 m with a displacement 172 m in the x and 80.3 m in the y-direction. What is the final displacement of the golf ball from the tee? A) 472i + 80.3j B 274i + 80.3j 472i + 83.0j 742i + 80.31
